86 ford ranger, need the shifter assembly as well.
2.3L engine, gasoline, 2 wheel drive. I think it's the Toyo model.

Well no way to explain it here too long. Go to an automotive parts shop and buy the Haynes Auto Book for your vehicle.
I presume you want to go to automatic. Then that is when the problems start. You have to maybe replace the steering column and possible the drive shaft. Go to a junk yard and search for one.
Change from one manual tranny to another. While you are at it, put in a new clutch, and turn the clutch plate while you are at it. If you can change oil and see if you can use synthetic oil in the manual. I have seen my dumb friends just change over and then 6 months later the clutch goes out. I warned them, and now they know.
On either one, blow out the transmission line from the radiator to the transmission. Use Synthetic if possible (you might be on a tight budget). Put a magnet in bottom of tranny pan if there is not one there. Newer cars have them.

If you have to ask, maybe you should let a professional do it. You can damage the clutch disc and other parts if you don't install it right

I believe there are 5 bolts bolting the tranny to the engine blok. Unscrew these WITH SUPPORT UNDER THE TRANNY!! tranny will slide out.
btw, you will need to remove the driveshaft first.
